tuesday prayer

Lord, let my words today be words of healing and hope.

Before a word is on my tongue, still my heart and mind.

Open my ears; help me listen.

Deliver me from pride,

the demand to be understood

that too often prevails

over the desire to understand.

Lady Wisdom, deliver me from myself.

.

Eternal God, I know not what tomorrow may bring,

so give me just enough light for today.

Humble King, help me loosen my grip on all my ambitions

except the ambition to love you and others

as you have loved me.

.

Loving Father, you have always provided all that is needed,

so help me to give generously to others,

to share freely and gladly, knowing your grace never runs out.

.

Jesus, be my Friend,

and help me be a good friend to others,

knowing you long to befriend all.

.
